What does Oud al Fayed smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring next and summer barely mentioned. Leisure, night out and evening wear lead the occasions, and votes split evenly between masculine and feminine.

It opens with black pepper, raspberry and saffron, a spicy, fruity start. Rose, jasmine and lily soften the heart into something floral. In the base, Cambodian oud, patchouli, amber and Atlas cedar dominate, while moss and musk add an earthy, animal depth. Hind Al Oud Kohl and Karakash Mystic Desert have a close profile.
